Albert Einstein: the sixteen laws of personal discovery.

It is more fun than Scrabble or the NY Times Crossword Puzzle – which I can never get right.

Flashing a searchlight on quotes of a great-man or woman through their letters, biographies and speeches, is a dance through their lives.

A non-scientist cannot appreciate his math and physics, and I do not intend to try. But, after studying these sixteen Einstein quotes – he has programmed your mind with new structure and function to see further and clearer.

An editor must make decisions. Help me decide which of these sixteen quotes you think deserves to be listed in the Quotation Hall-Of Fame. Let each one roll around in your mind until it offers a metaphor and association from your own life.

Here is one from a private conversation that did not make the cut. See if you can ignore its message.

- I am a pacifist, yet the cosmos dislikes labels. I hear Israel and the United States maligned because of their Might to resist.

Have you noticed that only the Strong are free?

Does Might-Make-Right?

Philosophy aside, I see no Right-Nation without Might.

I choose the United States and Israel with their Might to remain Free. Call me pisher, I am a pacifist with good sense. -

The Sixteen Einstein Messages are:

1. Experiencing is Knowledge… Everything else is Information!

2. Two things are infinite – the universe and human stupidity. And I am not sure about the universe!

3. Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.

4. Not everything that counts can be counted. And not everything that can be counted – counts!

5. Imagination is more important than knowledge. One fades into obscurity in five-years, the other connects to the cosmos.

6. I never think of the future. It comes soon enough.

7. If you are correct, make-a-prediction and we shall see.

8. Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new!

9. The definition of insanity is continuing to repeat the same actions and expecting a different result!

10. There are two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. Choose.

11. If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a Goal, not people or objects.

12. Examples isn’t another way to teach, it is the only way to teach.

13. When you put your hand on the stove for a minute, it feels like an hour. And when a pretty girl sits on your lap for an hour, it feels like a minute. That is the theory of Relativity.

14. You cannot solve a problem from the same level in which it was created.

15. The only reason for Time is so that everything doesn’t happen at once.

16. A genius is effective because he focuses his attention on the vital-few things, and ignores the trivial-many.
